Abstract
Integrative rehabilitation medicine emphasizes multimodal, patient-centered approaches to address chronic conditions, incorporating pharmacological, nutritional, and lifestyle interventions to optimize functional outcomes. This review synthesizes emerging evidence on magnesium's role in managing chronic pain and pulmonary disorders within such frameworks. Chronic pain, affecting up to one in five Europeans and 26% of Italians, often persists beyond tissue healing due to central sensitization and psychosocial factors, while pulmonary disorders like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma contribute to reduced quality of life through dyspnea and comorbidities such as pain (Urits et al., 2021), (Younes & Barassi, 2020). A narrative synthesis of 25 studies, including randomized controlled trials (RCTs), systematic reviews, and meta-analyses, reveals magnesium's potential as a safe adjunct. In chronic pain, magnesium supplementation modulates NMDA receptors, reducing neuropathic and musculoskeletal symptoms with moderate short-term efficacy, as evidenced by narrative reviews and clinical trials showing 20-30% reductions in pain intensity (Urits et al., 2021), (Rosomoff et al., 1991), (Sterling et al., 2019). Mechanisms include antagonism of glutamate-mediated hyperexcitability and anti-inflammatory effects, which may enhance exercise tolerance in rehabilitation (Berker & Dinçer, 2005). For pulmonary conditions, intravenous magnesium sulfate demonstrates bronchodilatory effects by competing with calcium influx in airway smooth muscle, improving forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) by 5-10% and reducing hyperinflation in stable COPD and acute asthma exacerbations (do et al., 2012), (Sharma et al., 1994). Integration into pulmonary rehabilitation programs enhances exercise tolerance, 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) by up to 54.83 m, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL), with no adverse effects reported across diverse populations (“Pulmonary Rehabilitation for Patients with Chronic Pulmonary Disease (COPD): An Evidence-Based Analysis.,” 2012), (Lee et al., 2020), (Bickton et al., 2020). Clinical implications include reduced opioid reliance, improved adherence in comorbid cases (pain prevalence 77-88% in pulmonary cohorts), and cost-effective synergies with yoga or education (Halma et al., 2024), (Trivedi et al., 2022). Limitations encompass small sample sizes (often n<50), heterogeneous dosing (e.g., 2g IV vs. 300-600 mg oral), short-term follow-up (<6 months), and underrepresentation in sub-Saharan Africa, where evidence supports benefits but lacks long-term data (Bickton et al., 2020), (Li et al., 2021). Gaps include synergies with mind-body therapies like Hatha yoga and biomarkers for personalization. Future research should prioritize large RCTs on long-term oral regimens and integrative combinations to establish optimal protocols. This evidence underscores magnesium's promise in holistic rehabilitation, promoting functional restoration, symptom relief, and reduced healthcare utilization.
